Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core View of the Report - Today, all treasury bond futures fluctuated slightly downward. The central bank announced the LPR rates for August, which remained unchanged, meeting market expectations. The future implementation of a moderately loose monetary policy will focus on structural easing, reducing the possibility of comprehensive easing, and weakening the expectation of a general decline in policy rates. However, as market interest rates continue to rise, the anchoring effect of policy rates is gradually emerging, limiting the room for further increases in market interest rates, which may maintain high - level fluctuations. Recently, the risk appetite in the stock market has been continuously rising, and the profit - making effect in the stock market has attracted funds into the stock market, suppressing the demand for treasury bonds. The year - on - year growth rate of M1 in July rebounded significantly, indicating that fixed - deposit and bank - wealth - management products and other fixed - income assets were not renewed after maturity, suggesting a possible change in the direction of large - scale asset allocation, which will have a non - negligible impact on the stock and bond markets. In general, treasury bond futures will operate weakly in the short term [2]. 3.
